OK, I am going to try the following:

SBF of the Gingerbread release

1-click root for Gingerbread

Install System Recovery

Wipe Data/System

Install Eclipse 0.6

I will report how my battery life looks with this procedure...

-------EDIT:--------

Yesterday (9/20/11) after 12 hours on battery I was down to 50%, which was FAR AND AWAY better than I have had since moving to Gingerbread. I consider this procedure a success. I am using Eclipse 0.6 no-blur, with JuiceDefender kicking data at 30 minute intervals. I had a few calls, browsing (30 minutes total or so), txt messages, and corporate push e-mail. After 12 hours I would normally be in the red at 5-10%. I'm happy with the DX2 (finally), and it will keep me until some newer 4G phones show up next year!
[Motorola Droid X2] nookie87:
Hi Eric,

I apologize for the delay in my response. Haven't checked the forum until today...

I did not unroot before taking the OTA GB. I was actually in a panic for a second, since not only did I not unroot, but I also didn't unfreeze bloatware with Titanium Backup. I literally just accepted the OTA GB right over my rooted Froyo with V6 script and bloatware frozen, and I was able to maintain my great battery life from Froyo. Hope that helps?

Wunderbar!!!

---------- Post added at 03:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------

Good luck sir! Hope you get your battery life back! Definitely enjoying my phone more, now that I can leave my phone idle for hours, come back and still be in the mid-90%. A bit scared to go back to Eclipse now (though I LOVE that ROM), since I don't want to lose my good battery life...
[Motorola Droid X2] rothjm:
Wanted to confirm and thank you.

I went back to Froyo and took the OTA Gingerbread, then one click root and flashed Eclipse .7.

My battery life has improved tremendously! :D:cool: MANY THANKS!

I'm still rebooting after a nightly charge but I haven't tested to see if it is needed anymore.
[Motorola Droid X2] nookie87:
Congrats! I'm glad my finding was not just a fluke and it helped others get back what was rightfully ours to begin with, which is great battery life! :)
[Motorola Droid X2] esoxx:
Another confirmation here. SBF'd to Froyo, OTA Gingerbread, one click root. I am not running a rom or a third-party launcher yet. My battery life has improved big time. I'm at 10 hours of light use and still at 78%! We'll see if this lasts...
[Motorola Droid X2] rothjm:
No longer rebooting after a charge. :)

My numbers are similar to the prev post...80% battery left on 10 hrs of light use. :cool:
[Motorola Droid X2] nookie87:
Congrats! And yes, it does last!

I'm still getting awesome battery life. Something in the realm of 2-2.5% per hour battery drain... I can easily get 30+ hrs off of one charge with my typical use (push email for work, some phone calls, friendcaster, Launcherpro widgets that poll, some web browsing, etc...)

One note though. I installed "SD Speed Increase" and set it to 2048kb as recommended, and that actually kept my phone slightly warm and experienced a 3.5-4% per hour battery drain. Once I put it down to 1024kb, I'm back down to 2-2.5% per hour battery drain.

Happy camper!

---------- Post added at 01:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 PM ----------

Great! Congrats sir!

How are you liking Eclipse 7? I am tempted to flash back Eclipse, but just am hesitant that my battery life will go bad again... Eclipse was so nice and crisp...

[Motorola Droid 3] 640k:
if that's the case, there's still opportunity for additional speed since vzw users are locked in at 14.4.
[Motorola Droid 3] elkay:
It's no different than our phone. They just call it the 4G because GSM companies like to call their HSPA+ technology "4G" when it's really just an extension of 3G. Our phones support the same bands - you're gaining nothing by buying that phone unless the MCC 310 block is not in place, in which case you'd theoretically be able to use the phone on AT&T or TMo here. Both of those carriers are atrocious in my area, so I can't see selling the D3 for that just to get the MCC 310 unlock. Odds are, that will be broken soon too anyway, just like the D2G.

Hi,

My cook rom is with last 2021 / 21690 040C and CHT2.

I've also a package for RssWidget for CHT2.

My problem is when I put the rss widget on home after if I put away tabs on the settings page, sense won't restart, need to do a sofreset.

When is not on the home page no problem even cook in.

I'm using rss and addon state links wiget

Does anybody have an idea ?
[Windows Mobile] ct_moi:
Hi,

After many search I think that's something in the parameters of CHT.

I don't find yet where, but I try with cht parameters from last HD2Owner rom and it's ok.

I've try so many things with different packages in the kitchen.

I join my backup of cht parameters if someone have an idea.

Thanks - Eric

Hi,

I've found a way to get it working, but need to have 3 widgets pages.

On my config I just have 1 widget page and 3 quicklinks pages.

On the hd2 of my wife it's the same config of mine without AddonStateLinks and it works.

So now error is found and is something to do with widget on CHT.

Just

About your widget, did you get correct manila file conversion for the slot number ?

For now I rebuilt a complete fresh kitchen and take to playing with the new options.

I haven't test yet but for my Addon_State_link, CHTI.AddonLinks was at slot1 and was nothing at slot0, may be need to correct manila file to have it at slot0.

But will continue this on CHT topic when I'll be ready as now I know it's don't come from some of my packages.

I don't know. I did it like Cookie posted in his thread. Mode9 and lua Files from cab in ManilaHash. I think they must by prepared for the Slot 0 before, no?

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moonshield:
Hello there,

I have a dumb question, just for the sake of asking:

Will it be possible to go back to 4.1.83 from an unlocked 2.3.4 via CWM?

If a flashable 4.1.83 was to be available, will flashing it on a 2.3.4 custom rom after a full wipe will cause a hard brick such as flashing one using RSD?

This question is with no real intention to go back, just to satisfy my curiosity...

because of the limitations in android we cannot use group authentication, it does not work.however this how to will show how you to create an L2TP/IPSec tunnel from your Cisco @ work or home to your droid (Preferably darky rom) native client. I.E. settings > wireless & networking> vpn

there is only one prerequisite and that is that you have advandced ip services ios ( required for ipsec)

heres the cisco config additions, please change the stuff in the <CHANGE ME>.

!

end

DO NOT Just copy and paste this onto your router. you must edit it first and remove the comments and the brackets.

Please change the ip, username, passwords and keys to make this work.

then basically on your droid goto the vpn settings and create a L2TP/IPSec vpn. input a name a shared key and the ip address or dns name of your router (internet address).

save the config and try to connect, this will ask for the aaa username and password. enter this and then it should connect. wayhey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Eee Pad Transformer General] IrishFran:
I'm a bit stuck here, hoping someone can help. I should point out I've also searched the forums, but am struggling to get anywhere because the main search terms (US and UK) are too short. I saw someone else ask something similar earlier as part of another thread, bt now I can't retrace my steps to check if he got an answer.

Anyway, he goes - maybe someone can help. I'm in London, and bought my Transformer here, but it appears to be a US one - the build number is HMJ37.US_epad-8.4.11-20110711. Firstly, am I right in thinking I've somehow ended up with a US one?

the main crux is that I've been waiting for the update to 3.2, but it hasn't come through yet. It didn't come through when the US version got released, and it hasn't come through yet now that the UK version has been released and, if I DO have a US model, that's not going to make a difference anyway.

I've tried download the couple of stock .zip files people have put on here, but I always get the error message at bootup, so they haven't worked. I'm on 3.1 atm, but frankly I can't remember how I got the upgrade from 3.0 - 3.1, so I'm no use there:( I've also tried going into settings and checking for an update, but that hasn't helped.

Any thoughts?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Soniboy84:
Hey,

im in the UK as well, and got the tablet 2 days ago with 3.0. I got home, connected to wifi and it straight away noted me about the 3.1, and updated it. No other update came through, so I think it's just not yet out in the UK.

I would just wait a bit in your case!

[Motorola Droid X2] blickley:
So I had originally put the leaked non-rooted GB update on my X2 with no issues. I had been running that for a few days when I decided to replace it with the p3 pre-rooted version. I did an SBF back to Froyo without issue, did the Gingerbreak, etc. The pre-rooted version went on fine with no errors, but then when it came up, the digitizer was unresponsive.

I did several factory resets, SBF back to Froyo again (several times), but the digitizer is still unresponsive....I now can't get past the setup screen. I also noticed that the emergency dial button has a blue highlight around it, and when I press the power button, the "Power Off" item in the menu has a blue highlight around it....almost like if I had a trackball or arrow keys, I could move the highlight....I wonder if it knows the digitizer is not functioning?

Has anyone else seen this? I see one thread on the Motorola site where two people have the same issue after updating the GB (presumable the OTA version since they are posting on that site), but no helpful responses.

My phone is only 3 weks old, so I am tempted to just SBF and try to get a replacement out of Verizon, but thought I would check here first in case I can fix it....or figure out what went wrong so it doesn't happen again.
[Motorola Droid X2] 1stx2:
i'm 1 of the people thats having the SAME EXACT problem as your having............ive sbf'ed like 100 times (no joke) and factory reset about as much............i'm just goin to take it back and hope i can get a replacement..............
[Motorola Droid X2] blickley:
I called Verizon and I was on my exact "30 day" since I bought it, so they are shipping me out a new one overnight. I have insurance, so I could have gone through them I suppose if it was after 30 days, but at least I'm getting a brand new one. Now I just have to decide if I'm willing to try it again.

So if more than one person has this issue, I'm guessing it is NOT a hardware problem. However, it is odd to me that doing the SBF doesn't fix it. I wonder what could be happening, maybe someone with more knowledge about this will be able to shed some light.

Unless we figure out what happened and how to potentially fix it, this seems pretty close to a bricked phone. I wonder it is something in the GB update in general, or something going wrong in the manual update!?!?!
[Motorola Droid X2] Deleted member 4177996:
Don't these phones have some type of manufactures warranty?

Edit: The phones carry a one year warranty wether or not you purchase insurance. If the hardware fails, as it has in your cases, they will replace it for free.

I noticed you didn't say you factory reset after you sbf to 2.2.2 in your original post. I don't claim to know for sure but some people are not following this direction, and it MAY be one of the problems. It is recommended that all directions are followed exactly for a successful update. The only way to tell if there is a problem with the method is if everyone follows it to the letter.
